"Last month, the leaders of the G7 declared their commitment to achieving net
zero emissions by 2050 at the latest. Closer to home, the Albanese government
recently introduced legislation to establish a Net Zero Economy Authority,
promising it will catalyse investment in clean energy technologies in the push
to reach net zero.
Pledges to achieve net zero emissions over the coming decades have proliferated
since the United Nation’s 2021 Glasgow climate summit, as governments declare
their commitments to meeting the Paris Agreement goal of holding global warming
under 1.5°C. But what exactly is “net zero”, and where did this concept come
from?"
